Econoloft - Loft Conversion Specialists Anmeldelser 

Overall I was generally pleased with the experience, cost and (mostly) finish of the project, but I was disappointed during the build that I ended up acting as project manager, chasing suppliers, dealing with payments, checking the quality of finish and dealing with the snaggings list.

If I had wanted to deal with this at the outset I would have instructed my own builders, roofers, electricians, plumbers etc.

I would not use Econoloft again but during the build I met some great tradespeople so I would happily instruct them again direct.

The issue with any building work is that all customers have different expectations. I was in a position that I was fortuitous enough that I could pay for a company to take over my build project but actually they did not and as such I have given them only 3 out of 5 stars to reflect what I perceive as an unnecessary contribution from me.

they seemed to do a good job, but then the problems started after I had paid in full. The roof leaked and needed to be replaced after 5 years
I had a builder in to replace the bathroom, the wall battens were insufficient, and had to be replaced, the tiles might have fallen off the wall.
They fitted an extractor fan in ceiling so damp air got into the roof space, this could rot the timbers.
All these problems had to be rectified by my builder.

It is not often that I feel it necessary to write a review but on this occasion I feel it is a must. The decision to undertake a loft conversion in your home is a big one and one that can be very stressful and for this reason I hope my review will help others. For many years I had often past the Econoloft office in West Wickham and had obviously noted their existence should ever I be lucky enough to be seeking such a project for my home (my view of their having an accessible shop front and office locally was very reassuring!). Eventually when the time came they were an obvious choice to investigate but not without sensibly doing some considerable research and comparisons with other companies in our area. My assumptions that Econoloft would most probably be out of our price range were swiftly and surprisingly quashed! Not only were we given a competitive price it was one that others could not easily match! From the very first point of contact right up to the very last on completion and beyond I honestly cannot fault the service we received. Every detail is carefully explained and any queries/questions along the way are quickly answered. Econoloft have a dedicated team at their head office in Wigan, the very lovely Caroline and Wendy to name just two, who are always happy to help and make the whole experience as trouble free as is possible (no nasty answering machines or waiting for a call back!). The team of tradesmen that were assigned to us were amazing. Davin and Dan our first fix joiners, who were with us the whole way through, Terry on plumbing and heating, Wes the electrician, Rocky and Harry masters in the art of plastering, Mike flat roofing specialist and finally Lukasz and his accomplice on final fix joinery, each and every one was quite literally a pleasure to have around. A jolly bunch with plenty of entertaining banter thrown in for good measure! Always polite, considerate and respectful of us and our home. To them personally we would love for them to know how very grateful we are to all of them for all their amazing skill, care and hard work….a massive thank you to you all! With such an array of different trades required we would have maybe expected the odd clash of personality but not one didn’t meet and exceed our expectations…what a smashing bunch! The finished article we can only describe as stunning, a complete transformation of a dusty old loft area and best of all the planned layout is such that it flows beautifully, following on from the existing second floor as though it has always been there! The loft conversion has truly transformed our home and we are beyond pleased with the result (not to mention the added value which well exceeds the outlay!). Econoloft come very highly recommended from us!!! 

We have enjoyed our loft conversion for nearly 4 years and it has been great. It is well insulated so warm in winter, cool in summer. We have not had any problems with it and loving the extra space it has created.
At the time of installation there were a few snagging issues and we had to ask the work men to redo some small parts of the work, but overall we were and are very happy, Econoloft pricing was very competitive and their time keeping good.

verall we had a great experience with Econoloft. We were looking to expand our 3 bedroom semi as we lacked upstairs living space. The whole process from start to finish was pretty painless, not what I was expecting. What we really liked (which was difficult to obtain from other building companies) was that we had a full written quote, detailing every light, socket, window etc. We felt that we were able to stick to our budget without any nasty surprises waiting around the corner. The build itself started on time and finished ahead of schedule. The workman were fantastic, arrived when they said they would and were extremely professional and couldn't fault their workmanship. We are really happy with the completed loft conversion and would definitely recommend Econoloft to anyone looking to convert their loft space.
